Subject: PTRACE_KILL doesn't (2.5.44 and others)
Date: Sun, 30 Mar 2003 20:51:26 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030330205126.G7414@almesberger.net> (raw)
If the process being ptraced is running, PTRACE_KILL will have no
effect. I've seen this in 2.5.44, and the code in 2.4.18 and 2.5.66
seems to be equivalent.
According to the ptrace(2) man page (as of man-pages-1.56),
PTRACE_KILL doesn't require the process to be stopped for this to
work.
Who is right ?
- Werner
